Description ffs 2020-12-16 18:03:33 UTC
Description:
If I choose optimal height it should base this on the optimal height of the current selection but instead it works on the entire document which has some silly consequences.

Case in point: I've got 1000 rows and 50 columns, many cells have long text contents and have word wrap enabled.  Many of the columns are hidden or shrunk to narrow widths to make the sheet usable.  I'd like to adjust the height of the rows so that the text in the column of interest is usable so I'd like to select that column and base "optimal height" on this.  

However it bases the optimal height on all the columns and since some are contracted to narrow widths and contain long text fields I get insane tall rows and an unsuable document.

Actual Results:
LO bases the optimal height on all the columns and since some are contracted to narrow widths and contain long text fields I get insane tall rows and an unsuable document.

Expected Results:
 I'd like to adjust the height of the rows so that the text in the column of interest is usable so I'd like to select that column and base "optimal height" on this.
